_OSI boot hang

[Len Brown <len.brown-ral2JQCrhuEAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>]

_OSI is in the ACPI patch on kernel.org and bkbits right now.

However, I find that on my Toshiba Satellite Pro, it causes boot to hang
at Executing all Device _STA and_INI methods.

>From ACPICA, it comes this way:
drivers/acpi/utilities/utglobal.c
const char                         
*acpi_gbl_valid_osi_strings[ACPI_NUM_OSI_STRINGS] = {
                       "Linux",
                       "Windows 2000",
                       "Windows 2001",
                       "Windows 2001.1"};


I find that it is the match on "Windows 2001" that hangs my laptop...

clues?
